1) There has been a lot of commentary on the RNC Convention--how professional it looks, how well produced.

I was skeptical that a convention without delegates would work but it has several advantages.

With no crowd the focus is always on the speaker.

2) Without a crowd interrupting with often obligatory applause, speakers have up to 30% more actual speaking time.

3) Cameras can& #39;t cut away to irrelevant delegate interviews ("So Sen. Romney, how terrible is President Trump?)

4) However, when small crowds are needed, the RNC has them as with Melania and Pence& #39;s speeches.

5) This has been a brilliant if unanticipated way to minimize damage from the lib networks.

6) Oh, and most GOP speakers are attractive.
